As colder weather starts to come through, many college students aren't feeling so cheerful about walking to class every day. This is just one of the reasons the popularity of mopeds on campus is increasing rapidly. Being able to reach close to highway speeds, these scooters are not your average Razor you got for Christmas in middle school.



Scooters also allow 1/6 of the space of a vehicle, whether you are paying to park on campus, or trying to skip out on getting the anticipated parking ticket of the day. Being able to park right in front of a building or the library is the number one reason why scooters are rising so quickly in numbers. Especially after an all nighter studying for an exam, students want to be able to get to class the quickest way possible. Let’s face it, everyone hates the bus and it takes twice as long to get somewhere on a bus route.

They are becoming extremely popular with people who live off campus and even professors have invested in the new scooter frenzy. So while students start bringing out the yoga pants, North Face jackets and Patagonias, they may want to invest in the newest transportation to class.
